"Our Society Is In The Process
Of Breaking Down All Around Us"
By Epic Economist
"Our society is in the process of breaking down all around us, and signs of its impending collapse are everywhere. Have you noticed that nowadays people don’t treat one another with the same level of respect and civility that they once did? Americans are constantly fighting with each other, and these days it feels like most people can’t solve anything through dialogue and empathy, and this should greatly alarm all of us. The worsening polarization across our nation can be a contributing factor, but recently, even those that are supposedly on the same side are treating each other with extreme contempt. Conservatives are fighting with conservatives, liberals are fighting with liberals, Christians are fighting with Christians, and we’re also seeing families break up all over the place. Hearts are growing so cold, and all of the conflict and discord that we are witnessing right now is leaving us wondering about what things will be like when economic conditions in this nation really start falling apart in the months ahead.
Given that we have become disturbingly disconnected from each other, we tend to focus on what’s happening inside our social bubble and forget the narratives others are living. But when we take a step back and take a deeper look at our current situation, the extent to which our society has already deteriorated is quite shocking.Unfortunately, we’re seeing similar scenes play out all around the United States night and day, and nothing really changes. With rampant unemployment and a fast-declining economy, it’s safe to say that this is only going to get worse in the coming months.
On the East Coast, things are no different. Official numbers show that New York City has also seen a 42 percent rise in burglaries in the past twelve months, and the number of outrageous wrongdoings that resulted in fatalities rose by a staggering 91% over that same span. No wonder why, approximately 299,557 people have already moved out of the city in search of a safer place to live in 2022, according to data from the U.S. census.
Sadly, extremely wicked acts continue to occur in our major cities, and such incidents are happening so frequently that they barely make a blip in the news. In Chicago, public hospitals report that 50 percent of victims arriving with severe injuries caused by immoral offenders are children under the age of ten. And about 37 percent of them lose their lives in a hospital bed.
Is this what America has become? Have we become a place where the lives of children under the age of ten are at risk? How can parents raise their kids safely in such chaotic environments?
What’s even sadder is the fact that many children out there are also victims of their own parents. For example, due to the worst addiction crisis this country has ever seen, many babies are addicted to illegal substances from the moment they’re born. In fact, in the city of Baltimore, approximately one out of every four babies is born dependent on opioids. Doctors at Mt. Washington Pediatric Hospital say babies born with Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome - a set of conditions caused by withdrawal from exposure to illegal substances - now account for 25% of the hospital’s admissions.
That’s so wrong on so many levels, and it means that the future of many of these babies is taken from them before they even have the opportunity to know the world."
